New Wiggle discount trick (money off and a gift worth £25)

    Hi, came across this today! Look below at the attatchment and you'll see what to do. All you have to do is set up a second email address and the rest is just great! I just wish I'd used it on my last 2 orders, over £100 each! :D

    Revised to make it easier to understand:

    All you do (to really avoid detection) is ask a friend or family member to be your new Wiggle buddy, and get them to order whatever you want for you. Say it was a bike for a grand, you get a £100 voucher and dhb glasses worth £25. Get them to call you whenever it arrives, and you might give them the glasses as a tip for doing this favor for you (they kinda look crap in my opinion!). The cool thing is that it works for any order over £50 (which many orders are) so over time, you might aquire a load of new Wiggle buddies and a large collection of dhb glasses (unless they change the gift!) Take a look at it, order £50 of stuff, get a reward of £30 back! Thats pretty class if you ask me. Let me know if you use it, it won't be long before I give it a go myself!

    They say they check this before honouring the vouchers.

    What do you mean by this? I'm not sure I understand what you are trying to say! ;)

    It states somewhere on the site that they check that it is the other persons first order before they honour the vouchers.

    did you use the same credit card for both orders? or the same billing/delivery address?

    surely they haven't made it this easy to scam them?

    No, I haven't used it yet (really annoyed I dindn't know about it on my recent orders) but I have it all sussed out really!

    Evans cycles has a similar, more legitimate offer on bikes at the moment. See here for details! :D

    I have those glasses (used the same trick ages ago). They are cheap, but if you use the blue lense on the dull days, it makes everything look much nicer.

    Yes but the person ordering doesn't have the gold or platinum discount which I think gives up to 10% discount..so you're really only getting the glasses. I know the gold and platinum discounts aren't given on bikes but if you're ordering anything else it's not worth the hassle.

    I just tried this trick for the first time recently! I made an €80 order on the behalf of someone else in my house, using their email address (actually an old one of mine which had my name in the address!). It was technically their first order, but I accidentally put in the shipping address for their account the exact same as mine so I definitely thought I'd get caught. Turns out I didn't, received the order and dhb glasses just as normal but never got my vouchers. I didn't know should I risk it and contact them about it, bringing attention on myself and getting caught but I did! I told them "my friend" asked me if I had used my voucher yet but I hadn't received it yet. They got back to me with a code for a voucher worth €8.54!! NICE :D The Wiggle staff who are supposed to be checking this are really not doing a great job! Good luck with it yourselves ;)
